Toyota Innova Owners & Discussions [ARCHIVED]

[RR27]

hello po sa lahat ng innova lovers!!! next week po' naka silver innova j d4d na po kami!!!! may thread po dito na hard starting at choking, black smoke, pero based dun sa 2005 innova e d4d ng church friend namin di daw nila na experience yun' sabi niya na ''sa nag aalaga lang yan''. mobil 1 ang gamit niya na oil. tapos search na rin kaagad ako kung paano aalagaan ang common rail engine kaya share ko lang ng konte ang iba, mahaba kase, ''
DIESEL ENGINE WON'T START
A diesel engine that cranks normally but won't start regardless of the outside temperature either has low compression or a fuel delivery problem. If compression is okay, check the fuel gauge (out of fuel?). Then check the fuel filters and lines for obstructions.
If the injection pump isn't pushing fuel through the lines to the injectors, it may have a faulty solenoid. Listen for a "click" inside the pump when the ignition switch is turned on. No click means the solenoid and/or pump need to be replaced. If it clicks but there's no fuel coming through the injector lines (and the filter and lines are not obstructed), the pump is probably bad and needs to be replaced.
DIESEL TROUBLESHOOTING BLACK SMOKE
Black smoke is usually a signal that there's too much fuel, not enough air or injector pump timing is off. One of the most common causes of this condition is an air inlet restriction. The cause may be a dirty air filter, a collapsed intake hose or even an exhaust restriction. Diesels are unthrottled so there is no intake vacuum to measure.
DIESEL STALLING PROBLEMS
If a diesel stalls when decelerating, it may indicate a lubrication problem in the injector pump. The first thing that should be checked is the idle speed. If low, it could prevent the pump governor from recovering quickly enough during deceleration to prevent the engine from stalling.
Water in the fuel can also cause stalling by making the metering valve or plungers inside the pump stick. Use of a lubricating additive may help cure this condition. If an additive doesn't help, the pump may have to be cleaned or replaced.

sana po makatulong po ito!!!! salamat po!!!

mam liv' salamat po sa reply niyo sa akin, ingats po!!!

Nice article, but I have to warn to you that Casa don't use any other oil aside Toyota Motor Oils otherwise they will void your engine warranty and you can not play with your idle speed because it has to be done using Toyota programming software. You have 3 years of full warranty so get the most of it make friends with your suking casa servicemen so you can pull their arms and legs when you car gets into troubles

Best of luck to you and your ride.

Cheers

RR27, Mile2 is right, CASAs do not allow use of non-toyota oil. I view this as purely maximing earning for them but we don't have any choice lest mavoid ang warranty. If you can convince your dealer on using a different branded oil without affecting warranty then that's good. On taking care of vehicles, simple din lang ang puede nating gawin and we have to rely sa casa on problems. Strict implementation of maintenance schedules, loading up of fuel from a refutable gasoline station and probably maintaining that source as much as possible, keeping your car clean inside out and good driving habits will somehow contribute to a good performing vehicle.

Ma'am Liv, this thread has had some discussions on Comp. Insurance premiums and you've contributed on establishing lowest possible rate from a certain insurer. My E Diesel Manual's 1st year insurance will expire nov. 10 and I received a proposal from Toyota Marikina for a renewal with premium amounting to Php16K, Is this reasonable? Yung value ng vehicle depreciated by about 10% from the original purchase price. Tama rin ba ito? Thanks in advance for the assistance.

i've created a thread regarding our Innova's insurance in the Innova sub forum... kindly post the quotation that you got from Tyt Marikina... we'll see if Tyt Otis can match it, if not give you a much lower quote.

Hello every body. I have registered since last aug but i havn't had the chance to be active in the forum. but i always read the threads and i find it very informative.

i would like to ask if somebody has tried "Bio-Diesel" in their innova. Ok ba yun? baka kasi ito yung sinasabi nila na low quality na Diesel. any experience and comments i would like to hear because i'm considering it kung sakali kasi mas cheaper sya sa regular na diesel.

as my user name says, mine is a: E, Diesel, AT bought last Aug 08.

Thanks in advance sa mga replies.

Don't worry majority of people do not believe in that voting where anyone can vote daily hehehehe

Hackers can make a robot program to vote on it daily

Unit count on the street is the true yard stick, no one can rig the figures

After two years and 44K kms run I had my front shock replaced by TMBC, I just told them about the leaky shock, they evaluate it and replace it quickly.

Good Day po sir Mile! My wife had our Innova E M/T today for 10k PMS. They observe 1 of our front shock is leaking. They told us to return on Monday for warranty evaluation. Tanong ko lang di ba dapat talgang under warranty to. And how long did it take for toyota to replaced the shock? Dapat di ba pares ang papalitan nila kasi i read one of the thread here na dapat pares kasi maapektuhan yung lumang shock pag-di pinalitan pareho.
Ay tapos yung side pillars daw evaluate din nila for warranty kasi natangal ti-nry nila kabit di nila maibalik.

Thanks! Hope to get a reply from you mga ka-Innova!

Kasama sa warranty ang shock absorbers dahil di naman ito consumables at walang puedeng i-tamper ang owner dito, kaya pag nasira talagang papalitan dapat.

Front shock replacement would not take an hour.

They would remove the leaky shock and will evaluate it, if still functioning they will not replace it.

I also tried that both front shocks be replaced, but they only replace one since they told me that the other one is still okay. They need the defective one so that they can also have a replacement from TMP.

For now, I just always monitor all my shocks till the end of warranty

Di sir fit yung bagong bumper ng new Innova sa old version. Iba yung design ng head light ng bago, mas malalim yung sa sa bago, pati front grill di pwede.
